Jessica Alba Goes To The Gym
March 26th, 2008 by Rian | Filed under Jessica Alba, Celebrity Exercise.
It looks like someone is still trying to stay active and fit during her pregnancy… (good for her!) Jessica Alba was spotted leaving the gym earlier this week.
She looks good!
She seems so unhappy lately. But her body looks like it is adapting to pregnancy very well.
Just one question though, what sort of exercises can you do while pregnant?
hate her
wow her thighs have gotten big. but it’s good she works out a lot!
Good for her. I just hope she doesn’t overdo it simply to stay thin…. once you’re pregnant your priorities should shift to the baby and not your own appearance.
Something about her I don’t care for though… did anyone see her on Punkd before she became really famous? She seemed so snotty… hopefully she’s grown up since then.
She doesnt looks too happy. But atleast she makes an attempt to go to the gym. If i were her i would just put a gym in my house and workout there. Im sure she has enough money to do that. She could lose weight in private and wear what she wants.
She thighs look juicy! And I mean that in a good way!
She’s gotten a lot of flack for her weight gain cuz she’s snotty. But pregnant is pregnant, & caring a baby is serious business! I NEVER intend to do it, but I say we give the girl a break.
whoa. her legs are huge. but good for her she is growing for the baby.
She needs to stop covering up her face. What a bitch.
she looks so unhappy to be gaining weight. i really just think she has to work hard on her body to stay thin and now that shes pregnant she cant look how she used to… she should just smile a little more because shes having a baby and thats exciting
Geez, if she’s so freakin’ unhappy about gaining weight by having a baby, why didn’t she just adopt instead? Of course, she probably feels like her genes are just SO frigggin’ perfect that she has to pass them on. Either that or the girl doesn’t know how to use birth control.
Yes, a smile would make all the difference in the world for this girl.
I kind of feel sorry for her - it’s known that she works very hard to be slender due to her genetic predisposition to be large. And now she is really ballooning while pregnant. Even if a woman is having a baby, it can still be hard to accept oneself as big or gaining weight. I hope she is coming to terms with it and is able to be happy. I think she’ beautiful no matter what.
i second that spectra.
completely agree with you!
I’m in no way an alba fan, but god, give her a break. I don’t know about pregnancy hormones, but I do know about PMS hormones, and if some prick had a lens up my nose I would not be smiling.
I agree with Kringle. Give this girl a break - she is pregnant and looking healthy. Good on her. She is allowed to look unhappy sometimes - she is no doubt hormonal and yes - has camera’s up her nose!
Seriously, she’s pregnant, and for a pregnant woman, her thighs do not look that big.
Being pregnant and gaining all that weight can make even the happiest woman pretty self conscious. I can’t imagine having to do it under a microscope. I don’t think I’d be happy about having paps in my face while I was preggers either!
I’d be kinda pissy too if I always had cameras in my face! I don’t think she really should be excersizing like she does now that she’s pretty far along in her pregnancy. She hasn’t put that much weight on besides her hips/thighs and ever expanding belly, but that’s totally genetic. She’s probably still TINY in real life!! =]
I think she looks good! I agree that it does seem like she’s not as happy since she’s been pregnant and I think it’s because she doesnt like gaining weight with the pregnancy.
Moo!
“She looks so unhappy about gaining weight”. Do you really honestly think that because she doesn’t look happy in these pictures it means she doesn’t want a baby?? Give me a break. She has to deal with cameras in her face all the time…would you try to pose and be cute for them ALL the time? Probably not. She looks really good! She seems to be at a healthy pregnant weight…good for her!
It really does make you realize how hard these girls must work to stay so trim and toned!! She is probably just eating like a normal person now and look whats happened to her ‘perfect body’ Its good to see that these people are just like you and me.Good on her for putting her bub first over having skinny thighs!
personally, as someone who works out everyday, it would be VERY hard for me to just stop completely. i’m sure there are healthy things one can do while pregnant (even if it’s just walking on a treadmill) to stay active… and if her routine was to go to a certain gym everyday so she can focus on the task at hand (vs. doing it in her house where there are many distractions) i say good for her!
just b/c you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you have to completely stop being who you are.
She needs to lighten up, figuratively (not literally) speaking. Physically she looks like a typical pregnant woman except she frowns too much.
she looks good!
such a sour puss
wow, even her fingers are looking stubby…wonder how quick she’ll lose the weight.
Sausages!
I agree with Erin she probably doesn’t like having the cameras all in her face. Especially since she is pregnant and has gained weight and probably is self concious about her weight.
she is so pathetic, just give it up jessica, your gonna gain weight during pregnancy like it or not…enjoy your life, im tired of seeing you looking so miserable going to the gym everyday.
Wendy, you said it best. As someone who worksout every day, it is hard to slow down during pregnancy and you don’t have too! I am 2 weeks from my due date (with my 3rd child!) and I still workout nearly every day. I do a 1 1/2 hour power pump and lots of cardio. I don’t know why people give her so much flak for going to the gym. You don’t roll over and sleep for 9 months, but you do slow some stuff down a little (I stopped running after 4 months). Pregnant women need exercies too as long as they are being healthy about it!
i think all the skinny girls are getting pregnant, because they’re tired with maintaining their sickly figures. so now they’re pregnant they have an excuse to eat.
bahaha.
I don’t think it is the weight gain making her so unhappy. Her near-constant sour face makes me think there are other issues. Doesn’t seem like we see her much with “daddy” (but then again I really only see her here).
Sweet pink stain.
Sweet stain.
Holy Saddlebags!! You can tell she’s not a naturally thin person and she has to work on it. However, I don’t think criticizing pregnant women’s bodies holds me in the highest light.
You’d think the baby was in her thighs not her stomach!
omg she looks …bad. i mean, her body used to be fab, and she’s gotten really big. you can see now she wasn’t naturally skinny. boy, am i mean to pregnant women or what..:)
omg the scorn this poor woman recieves is unfair
she just seems so vain and shallow. her thighs have gotten really big, but it was bound to happen. she probably can’t even stand to look at herself anymore.
Jessica had to work very very hard and EXERCISE MANY hours daily (and if I recall, she did so EVERYDAY)! That was when she was NOT pregnant! Her genetic make-up is not to be a thin person; so she really had to work at looking thin/waifish. Now it must be really hard for her to see herself gaining (almost on a daily basis NOW!). However, I know that if women have exercised regularly (even if overly exercised regularly) prior to becoming pregnant; usually (with doctor’s consent) they are allowed to continue to exercise…except that as time goes on they must “take / tone” their exercise down a few notches as they become larger and closer to their due dates.
I have seen many women where I go to work out at the gym who when they become pregnant…they exercise like right up until they deliver practically. They do have to take things more slowly as time goes on, etc. But usually it helps them with an easier delivery (not always, but many times). One girl I know came in during her regular morning workout. She was even swimming that particular day. Some days she would walk/do treadmill and other days she’d swim. Anyhow, I learned that the last day she was in…that day she had been swimming…and later in the afternoon she delivered her baby! So, I guess that exercising while pregnant must be okay (but you must check it out with your doctor).
she is ugly pregnant or not.
wow she has gained a lot of weight and her tummy is not even that big yet! She still has a long way to go!
Jessica Alba has always said that her mother was obese, and I think that her body is changing to reflect her true body shape. She is naturally curvy and pretty, and I’m glad to see that she’s looking like a normal pregnant woman. Yes, she’s gained some weight around her thighs, but that’s all going to come off after she has the baby. She’s into action movies, so she will definitely bounce back.
i left a comment earlier on how unhappy jessica looks and i feel the need to add.. she’s gaining weight during a time in her life when she SHOULD be gaining weight.. and we wonder why she looks miserable? maybe its because shes pregnant and needs to gain weight to be healthy and instead of being a stick figure and putting her baby in danger, shes being responsible and doing what she has to do. you’d think that we’d all commend her on not being so vein and putting her baby first, but instead we call her fat and mock her for looking so depressed… i’ve personally never had a baby and im sure if i was gaining weight i’d freak out too.. but i’d expect people to be glad i was gaining instead of sit there and bitch about how fat i look.. geez we’re bitches
I like how by a couple of unsmiling photos so many have decided she is unhappy about gaining weight and should never have children. Seriously people, get a grip.
Poor baby. Her ass and thighs are huge.
Wow she is really showing her mom’s genes here - she’s getting huuge. I bet she’s not going to ever get her skinny body back.
She looks good! I’ve seen women who have completely let themselves go during pregnancy, at least she is trying! She obviously worked really hard to stay fit and now that she can’t control her body anymore is obviously really frusterating. Also, if I was pregnant and some guy shoved a camera in my face, I would be PISSED!
why does she always covers her face like that?
she is not that ugly.
it’s good to work out when pregnant. THat’s actually when you really need it.. You need to be strong for the big day. Kudos Jessica
Whoa! You can definitely, definitely see the weight gain in her thigh/hip/butt area!
The idea that a woman only gains in her belly while pregnant has been disproven time and time again. The body stores extra fat in order to help beef up the milk supply. There is a very complex thing happening with Alba’s body here, and you should’t disrespect that process by saying “Oh, she’s fat, she’s let herself go, yada yada yada.” She’s obviously taking care of herself, and I personally think she looks great to be as preggo as she is. But seriously - she really can’t help what her body is doing at this point. This is what her body needs to do in order to prepare for the rigors of birth and breastfeeding a child. Don’t disrespect her like that.
For all of you that are sooo disgusted by how incredibly fat she is:
All that fat around her hips and thighs is an evolutionary advantage designed to stimulate fetal brain development. If you can’t grasp that, well, it’s not surprising.
I really Cant help it but i love it that she’s getting fat all over the place! i just hate that girl.. i know it’s not nice of me
for someone who hates getting her pictures taken you’d think she’d use her millions to put a gym in her mansion - she is either dressed in evening gowns or sausaged into sweat pants - how about a happy medium? at least she doesn’t have a stupid scarf wrapped around her throat
Wendy says it best. Being pregnant is not an excuse to get fat, eat whatever you want, etc..like 70% of American women nowadays. It is sad what the obesity rate is today. Because of all the fattening food women are eating & lack of exercise. She looks beautiful..and I wouldn’t be smiling either if someone was sticking a camera in my face.
Oh, butt
kringle I was thinking the same thing when I read the posts giving her sh*t about not smiling. I bet you all would stab the cameramans’ eyes out if they caught you at an unflattering moment when you’re pms’ed or worse, pregnant - regardless of whether or not it was an accepted part of your job/life.

She never looks happy in pictures since she has become pregnant. Her thighs have gotten a lot bigger as did the rest of her.
i think she looks pretty darn good here..there were other preg pics of here i thought she looked really bad..i agree she does seem so unhappy. and i always thought she seemed snotty too. but yeah maybe something is going on between her and cash …lol we do never see him…does it make me hapy to know that she really has to work hard to get her body the way it is..yeah maybe it does but at the end of the day that baby is going to be one gorgeous child. and i think her thighs look good.
i wonder if she’s miserable because she’s gaining weight, doesnt want a baby, or is realizing that without her looks she will end up where she belongs–on the D List.
in any case, i would hate to have her as a mother–what a drag it would be to be an unwanted baby/kid
She must hate being pregnant. But then, I really don’t understand why she didn’t have an abortion if her body weight is so much more important to her. I have never seen her talking happily being pregnant. She always whinges about something.
Is it me or is her tummy getting smaller?
man, she is getting faaaat!
My guess - she`s not getting fat at all. she wears a fat-suit, so she can miraculously loose her “babyweight” after having her baby. harhar
isn’t she expecting twins? *heard a rumor*
Jade, I totally remember the punkd episode! She was a horrid little snob, and I still haven’t gotten that persona out of my head when I think of her.
And Kringle, hilarious comment and true, thank you =)
Maybe that is why she looks so bad.
She should chill out and not work herself out for a while. Seriously, one of the worst baby bodies I have ever seen.

I’m in no way an alba fan, but god, give her a break. I don’t know about pregnancy hormones, but I do know about PMS hormones, and if some prick had a lens up my nose I would not be smiling.

Ditto. I was a bitch on wheels when I was pregnant. If I were a celebrity there would be millions of crazed pregnant woman attacks paparazzi photos. I don’t get why people don’t understand that not all pregnant women are glowing and filled with bubbly joy that there is a tiny little wonder growing inside happiness. I can understand why Jessica Alba looks pissy. I am not going to assume it is b/c she hates her body.
Jessica really gained mostly in her lower body…her little baby bump is not that big though. She was getting a bit too thin right before she got pregnant so this is good. I think she looks okay to be a pregnant woman I mean what do you guys expect a toothpick body and big tummy? That isnt the case with everyone.
she will regain her perfect figure…no doubt about that!
it’s kind of annoying how she always tries to hide her face. i used to really like her but i’m getting tired of her non-sympathetic behavior
Its fat alba!
she looks great & seems to be very healthy during her pregnancy
i think she looks good though she’s already far along. and people,stop saying she should smile!! SERIOUSLY, would you smile if you were pregnant and having a bunch of paparazzi running around you all the time?? Do you smile on your way to gym?
I don’t know how anyone could say she has the ‘worst baby bodies’? I just don’t see that. She has always been bottom ‘heavier’. not HEAVY at all..but you can tell she gains in her lower half. Her top half..even now..has always been thin. I think she looks awesome for being pregnant. I think it’s good, also that she’s taking care of herself. When I eventually have children..I am going to do what she is doing and keep up my workout routine..just not as intense as it is now.
You can def work out when pregnant. My dr. told me no aerobics/jumping around, but I was able to do the treadmill and light weights. It helped keep my sugar under control (gestational diabetic) and my last work out was 6 days before I delivered.
I can’t get over how big her ass looks. I know it’s normal but, you know, it’s Jessica Alba after all.
I know I am assuming but Jessica Alba never ever seems happy. She said herself that she had OCD when she was twelve and anorexia so I suggest she’d hire a therapist and talk because she deserves to be happy. Everyone does.
moo? she is pregnant, idiot. what other animal sounds do you know? very good!
She’s seen those pics of an EMACIATED Nicole Kidman jogging and is now desperate to lose her baby weight.
BEFORE SHE’S HAD THE BABY!
lol
She may be photographed frequently and the tagline may say ‘at the gym’ but she has a large amount of weight that she is carrying on her bum and hips so it doesn’t seem as if she is actually doing much lower body working out-like brisk walking or cycling-which would (check with your physician, pregnant ladies as I am certainly no expert)probably help and not harm the baby.
